I liked to shoot photos of people around me. If I thought Yamada-kun was looking good, snap!! Have the girl I like, Kumi, wear a kImono and snap!! Kondo-san at the store, snap!! The pet dog Taro at home, snap!! I thought they were good photos. Other people, as well as the people in the photos said they were good photos, so they must be good.With a half pen a friend gave me, I wrote baka (stupid), and took lots of photos of that. When I joined a studio, I spent time everyday as an assistant. Famous professional photographers came everyday and shot photos. I spent everyday with lighting, hair/make-up artists, studio equipment,and models. Discovery of a genius at New Cosmos of Photography. Discovering my respected master is name Mr. Araki, among the three judges. I applied, barely making the deadline. A phone call informed me of the Award Ceremony. Comments to the award recipients were handed to me and a cash award of 200 thousand yen. For the first time in a while, I cried hard. these photos are a warning to all wimpy photographers, a symbol of all loving photographers, as well as evidence that a brilliant mind was here. On top of that, they are homage to women.


Selecting judge: Nobuyoshi Araki

In this age, to seek doesn’t cost anything. Now’s the time to be rambunctious. This shows how he loves women. and I like how he shot the photos relentlessly. You can sense a duet between him and the model. You can also sense his excitement while shooting. Some of these photos would surprise even Iwata Nakayama. I really like his energy, his relentless work, and how you can sense the air and body heat of the photo session.
